We had sleet and ice today, so clinic was canceled after four hours. It's bitterly cold, and since the temp is in the mid 20's, I decided to fill up on gas (had 1/3 tank) to keep the gas line from freezing.
Bear in mind the roads are really slick.
The gas station I go to is a bit tight to get in and out of. The pumps are angled for some reason, so are a bit hard to get into.
Woman in a sedan is filling up. Her driver side door is wide open, and blocks me from pulling in to use the other pump. I have to drive completely around to get in to a pump.
Meanwhile, lines start forming at the pumps. Woman still doesn't close her door until she's ready to get in her car and leave, leaving a line behind her. She's lucky on the slick roads someone didn't try to squeeze in to the other pump and take off her door.
Meanwhile, a van at another pump has finished filling up. Driver decides to do some shopping in the C store without moving his car (I could see him moving about in the store while I pumped). So the line just gets that much longer.
Is it really so hard to close your door so other people can pump, or to move your car after you pump so other people can pump when there's a line?
